Recently, he was on Beyoncé’s new record “Cowboy Carter,” and he also put out a song with Orville Peck called “Cowboys Are Frequently Secretly Fond Of Each Other.”

Is Willie Nelson dead? The rumors were even addressed in the funny way he is known for on his most recent record, “God’s Problem Child,” in the song “Still Not Dead.”

How the Fake news got around

In February 2015, a fake news website called MSMBC.co said Nelson was found dead at his home on Maui. This was the start of the first big scam.

The story tried to fool people by writing in a style that looked like it came from a real news site, like MSNBC.com.

On social media, this lie spread like flames. There have been similar celebrity rumours on MSMBC.co before, and the site later added a half-hearted disclaimer to its piece saying that the “story is still developing.”

Is Willie Nelson dead?

With a post on his official Facebook page, Willie Nelson quickly put an end to these rumours. When he posted a picture of himself carrying a newspaper that said “Still Not Dead,” he wrote, “The hoax is a hoax.” Do not trust everything you read on the web. “Love, Willie.”

The first song on his 2017 record “God’s Problem Child,” “Still Not Dead,” makes fun of the rumors even more. Is Willie Nelson dead? Nelson talks about his long life, health, and even his pot use in a funny way:

“I woke up still not dead again today / The internet said I had passed away / But if I died I wasn’t dead to stay / And I woke up still not dead again today”

Willie Nelson is still alive and well, and his long and important work is still going strong.

Even though they keep making up lies about him, he replies with humour and the phrase “still not dead, and still not done.” The website Snopes.com says that he is one of the most common targets of these lies and that he is also a famous person who handles them very well.
